Warning: The originals photos, texts, films, music, etc ... of the period previous to 1921 year -see the Act of the US Congress about it - have no copyright and belong to the public domain. However, those same pictures, I process this blog, when I restore and paint the pictures, then the right of modification is produced, ie that are protected by full copyright law, in this case mine. Of course there are many more laws in the world, declared in the public domain photographs (which is the topic at hand), in very later dates to the aforementioned (Example: WWII, Korea, etc ...).

Improvised RAF Armoured Car ''The Eagle''. Great Britain, 1940.


“The Eagle” Improvised R.A.F. Armoured Car


Was made on a chassis of a civilian vehicle 15CWT. (750 kg) in 1940. He carried a British Hotchkiss Portable Machine Gun Mk. I  of 7.7-mm. (.303 Caliber), with a small shield placed on a pedestal and arranged especially for antiaircraft fire. We performed another vehicle of the same features called "Daniel". Both must have been used to provide protection to the RAF airfield, where they were intended.
